for me the solution was: mount D "X:\" -t cdrom -ioctl
(X is my cdrom drive)

see my solved problem with phantasmagoria1 here:

Mounting directiories as CD-ROMS

now I am going to try phantasmagoria2 (cd switching problem too)

yes! I can switch cd's succesfully with phantasmagoria 2 using this code:

mount e "X:\" -t cdrom -ioctl

(X being my cddrive) but the movies run really slow, so i'm trying to get it right with the dosbox config file... anyone suggestions for getting the movies to run better?

Step 3 - Performance:

The Newbie's Pictorial Guide To DOSBox

- or -

http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php? … eDemandingGames and http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php? … s+much+too+slow

the movies are running pretty good now.
but does anybody know how to get the 16-bit movies of the windows version in DOSbox? The dos version has only 265 colors.

Since this thread have now moved far away from the original question, I am locking this thread.

Please start a new thread about 8 vs 16 bit movies, or continue here:
